We investigate the interference of the superfluid Fermi gases released from a double-well potential in the crossover from the unitarity limit to the Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) limit. For two initially coupled Fermi superfluids, we show the formation of the clear and nonuniform interference fringes, in which the fringe spacing grows linearly in the evolution time, and the expansion velocity of the fringes increases significantly from the BEC limit to the unitarity limit. For two spatially separated Fermi superfluids, however, we show that in the strongly interacting regime, the interference patterns are characterized by the complicated spatial structures. By studying the interferences in the unitarity limit under different values of the strength of the double-well potential, we find that these complicated structures actually originate from the formations of spontaneous vortex rings, due to the transverse instability.
